Fortune Cats Street

Fortune Cats Street

Kate Wu |  30 Jul 2017
For those who love cats, art and ceramics, check out the Manekineko Dori (I called it Fortune Cats Street) in Tokoname city, Aichi prefecture Japan. It's a strip of road side filled with over 30 ceramic cats created by different artists. Each of the cats has a blessing message. Here's some selected 36 cats.

Fortune Cats Street 招財貓大道
Good health, safe childbirth, safe journey, good wealth, and find your love.
健康長壽、安產、航海安全、結良緣、財運和免除煩憂。

Some of the messages are obvious but many are not. Please read the artist's name and the title below the cat.
有些貓貓的意義很明顯，有些則要看解釋。在現場就要看公仔下面的名稱及創作人名字。
